"The parish church of St. Joseph in Herne-Wanne-Süd is a Roman Catholic parish church in the Wanne-Süd pastoral association [...] The monumental building made of Ruhr sandstone was built between 1910 and 1911 according to the plans of the architect Johann Carl Pinnekamp (1872-1955). Due to its location between three streets, the church was planned with three front sides. The building, with a rectory planned and built at the same time, is part of the late phase of historicism, which strives for monumentality and already shows a reduction in the formal language. [...] The neo-Romanesque church is faced with Ruhr sandstone bosses of different sizes. On the west side facing the main street is the massive, four-storey tower on a transverse rectangular floor plan. Here, based on the model of the building of San Zeno Maggiore in Verona, a vestibule is placed in front of it, which, following its Italian model, is guarded by three lion sculptures that lie on sandstone pedestals and are carved from Ibbenbüren sandstone."
